Yesterday, Stephanie² arrived in Philadelphia. Just one more days until me and three of my closest friends and blogging buddies get together in one of the greatest cities in the country, Philadelphia. Jenni, Stephanie¹ and I have known each other for the better part of three years and we’ve been chatting with Stephanie² for over a year now. We’ve had play dates, talk almost daily on gchat and a day without a comment on Facebook or Twitter from any of them is like a day without sunshine. They are as much a part of my daily routine as brushing my teeth and screaming at the neighbors dog when it poops on my lawn for the millionth time. But I digress….

When Stephanie² decided she wanted to leave her magic kingdom in the foothills of Disney World and come visit us in the northeast, well we just knew we had to show her Philly. I mean, I could have given her a pretty rockin tour of Delaware but Philly…well, its Philly! You really don’t have to say much else about it, that’s how amazing it is.

Then she will be taking her first ever Septa ride down to Delaware to meet my family! So Septa passengers, if you see Stephanie², do me a solid and help her out. The trains can be a little nerve-wracking for someone that’s never used them.

Philadelphia Ghost Tour has been rated one of the best top ten ghost tours in the country. The ninety minute walking tour takes you through Old Square, St. Peter’s Cemetery, Old City and Signers Garden.

They supply tour guests with EMF (electromagnetic field meters) and encourage you to bring cameras. You never know who you might run into…or through…in the case of a ghost. 😉

and so much more! What a shame we only have two days to pack it all in. We can’t possibly see everything before Stephanie² leaves on Sunday but we are gonna try to cram in as much as we can! Just goes to show you that you can truly spend a whole week’s vacation in Philadelphia and never get bored.

We’re hoping to fit in a stop to Rittenhouse Square to take some maternity photos of Stephanie¹ if the weather allows.Seriously, I am tired already. Also, I am really nervous about leaving C and Izzy for the entire weekend. I’ve never been away from Izzy for more than one night. My husband is obviously completely capable – it’s just that I will miss them terribly. It’s so silly when you consider that I will only be 40 minutes from my front door.

We are all so excited and so thankful to all the establishments that have opened their doors to us. Can’t wait to meet all of the people that we’ve spoken too and see all that Philly has to offer!
